Peaceful, stench-free river transport. (Link below) June 22 - somehow we all seemed to have missed the news of this seemingly very un-Russian initiative. Come on Scott Ritter et al - wot rock ya'all sleepin' under ? Not interested in Peacefulness Initiatives? I stress - they're not for military or police - but as everyday peaceful, quiet, stench-free public+tourist transport. Serene, surreal but real. And frankly I don't give a darn about the greenwash factor. Small acorns. Virtuous virus. Hope allegedly springs eternal and wot not.. Quote: "Russian President Vladimir Putin and Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin opened the first year-round river electric transport route on the Moskva River. Traffic has been launched between Kievsky and Heart of the Capital berths. Six stops are in operation and other stops will start operation when the infrastructure is ready." "There are 8 electric vessels on the 6.5 km route, named after the Moscow rivers: Sinichka, Setun, Presnya, Filka, Skhodnya, Ramenka, Yauza and Neglinka. Each can accommodate up to 50 passengers, and there are seats for people with disabilities". https://www.greencarcongress.com/2023/06/20230622-moscow.html |
